So great having all this encouragement.
The beet juice fabric kind of worked. When I got home it was quite a nice brown and the resist was breaking down. So, a quick rinse and leave to dry overnight. Well, this morning I have brown fabric. It leached into the design so there are no witch's feet at all. Still, I now have a nice colour to start another batch with. I started with beet juice and now I'm making lemonade.

Brown??? I thought it would be red?? Was tempted to try but not when it turns out brown You're not making lemonade with the beet juice are you?

Anael - raspberries come out brown, too.
Ick. I hate beets. Lemonade is my attempt at humour - when life hands you lemons (in this case a fabric that didn't turn out as expected) make lemonade (deal with it)

Anael

Ohhhhhhhhhhhh I know the expression but didn't think of that when I read you making lemonade So now you have to find something that makes your fabric red

Kool-aid will do it.

Oops, raspberries come out pink. Cherry juice comes out brown.

Anael was probably hoping you were making Pink Lemonade!

W4Me ... Wonder, if you had been home and caught the brew sooner, if it would have stayed reddish?

Brown isn't so bad though ... now for an over dye and some smooshing to take it from brown into pinkish and reds. I can tell what you will be doing this weekend again!
